Long night ahead. MIL in hospital on end of life care. Nursing staff just brought us a big pot of hot water, milk, tea, coffee and biscuits.

Thinking of you all.

Thanks. Still here but at least she is relatively peaceful.

Thinking of you

Another grey day with light rain forecast but not currently raining.
Yesterday I heard a cuckoo from behind my house. Used to hear them often but not now as what were open fields are now fields of enormous houses. You have to listen very carefully as the pigeons have a similar tone but three coos as opposed to the two of the cuckoo.
Wakened by an itch on the back of my ankle about 0100. Recognised it immediately as a tick so kit out and head torch on. Too far away without specs on but could not get the bit near enough to see properly with specs. Managed to get the little B out eventually. I was only in my garden yesterday and not in long grass or any long vegetation so how I picked it up is a mystery.
Lots of comments that they are particularly bad this year.

I used to have to do repairs to our knitting machinery from time to time and inevitably some tiny part would drop and scurry of somewhere. Strangers would get a bit bemused to find several people with backsides in the air searching the floor with torches. They travelled a surprising distance sometimes and hid under something. The only alternative would be to cannibalise a not working machine which was not a good idea.

It seems to be that drop something small travels the longest distance
A .tablet I take is tiny .Drop it and it rolls to god knows where.That particular tablet is in a blister pack.
Taken to holding it over a cup Try escaping from that you little b#**#

One of the tablets, Tolterodine, my good lady takes is tiny and its the one that usually gets dropped if a tablet is going to get dropped and its always difficult to find.

A grey & damp morning in this corner of Suffolk. With the day off work, it's the perfect weather for a little bit of housework and a large amount of bike fettling - once I've had breakfast & another cuppa that is!

I've just hobbled down to the hospital pharmacy for painkillers for my knee. Not helped by Snowdon and 40 miles on Saturday and two bar crawls

My smallest tablet has the longest name. It starts with ben and then adds another 7 syllables garnered from a whistle-stop tour of the alphabet.

Sky has gone filthy; it'll rain any minute now, just you wait and see...
